    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jun 1, 2021

    The names of several women in the line or ancestry of Jesus, the Messiah, are listed in Scripture. Many other such mothers are not. No matter if they're mentioned by name or no, each of these ladies can someday rejoice that they were among the mothers of the Messiah!

Regardless, the Lord knows each one of them—by name—and allowed each one to be part of His plan to bring salvation to a lost and dying ...read more

    We tend to skip the list of names in the first verses of Matthew's gospel, but each name is there for a reason, and it is to show the royal line of the Lord Jesus Christ and HIs right to the throne of David as King and Messiah.

    Matthew wastes no time in establishing his case to prove that the Lord Jesus Christ is the Promised Messiah and the heir to David's throne as the true king of Israel. His opening statement reads as follows: "The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the Son of David, the son of ...read more

    Nehemiah was broken hearted over the condition of his people. Do you know something is sadly missing in our churches today? Weeping! How long has it been since you saw wet eyes in church? Tears at the altar?

    Opening illustration: I was never ever overwhelmed with worship at any church in our nation as much as my spirit was moved by the worship at the rickety broken ‘Church of Noah’s Ark’ at Monterrey, Mexico. Even though I did not understand the language, but the power of the Holy Spirit was so ...read more
